So, what I learned: Time flies! It's not easy to do this all and juggle your everyday life. But it's been a pretty good year so far and I look forward to continue trying to complete these tasks before July 31st! A little over 2months! 

Someday I'll get there...

A Fine Fall Day.

In mid-October my family and I attended some fall festivities!
It was a beautiful day surrounded by nature, pumpkins, and animals!
I hope you all were able to fit in a fine fall day as well.

Fall has Fallen

Fall has fallen around me. It sure does sneak up on you.
I decided one day to take a walk and soak in all the beautiful fall colors.

Mountain Cloud

I was driving home the other day and saw this cloud. I felt I needed to photograph this cloud because it wasn't your typical everyday cloud. It was as big as a mountain, I swear! Such a beauty to see!

 

Facing Sunshine

Something I need to remind myself from time to time.

29 Going on 30

July 31st marked my 29th birthday. I kinda, slightly freaked out in the inside. Because this means I'll be 30 next year! Crazy, because I don't feel that old or should I say I don't feel that age. Looking back in time, I didn't see my life this way at all. Not that it's a bad life at all. I mean seriously look at my amazing son!

I do wish I was slightly more accomplished in my career aspect. I mean growing up I wanted to be this famous artist or photographer. (And I secretly still do).  Then I look around at so many people my age and all that they have accomplished. They have made a dent in this world. This makes me question my life and if I have made a difference? And if I have really lived so far? Seriously, I want to be that beat-up pick up truck that just screams personality because it really lived. So, this bucket list is to living and reminding myself of my dreams. It is also about motivating myself to become a healthier and happier ME! So I can hit my 30s with the a BANG!
